Some tips from me: Don't try to brainstorm too much. More forums=Less programming. I would recommend you start now or your company may die.
And also, try to make your own logos. Pictures from google images may have copyrights (If that is what you are using)

For the radio, my brother has a Nintendo DSi. For the sound program, there's an option to make the thing sound like a telephone or radio. I could put an SD card into the DSi, make the noise, save it to the SD chip, and load it into Scratch. How does that sound? Plus, I could probably find something online for making something sound kind of static-like.
I found a nice tutorial to do this on Audacity, but it take s a while, so please don't use the radio too many times individually! It's OK, however, to do it as long as you want, just not too often, like twenty times at the maximum.

Thanks for your concern! We need some ideas TO program them, but I get what you mean. Before I got the images off of google I filtered it to ones that are labeled for reuse, for then, no copyright laws.

So is the radio cool? Also, I'll do a person for the normal voice, if needed.

Yeah doing the radio on audacity sounds good! (thats what I use) we had someone on the radio but they havnt said anything in ages, so the position is yours!
Thanks! Also, do you need help finding music? Unless you go to the Requests forum, I wouldn't use music you or a person working for SandStone Games has made, you could run into serious copyright troubles. However, there's a little flash game called "Notessimo 2" that lets you create your own music with a very user-friendly interface. You can find it at notessimo.net. I don't have a knack for musical composition, but maybe somebody else does.

I think in the game there is one person who gives you cars,weapons,etc,etc and at the end of the game he will die by being shot by some main baddie.That way the game is more than just "go kill that dude".

@ aweman, i'll give notessimo a try, I like playing and composing music, if it works good i'll spread the word to the whole team!
@destroyallhumans, yeah the guy should be a cousin, brother or old school friend. You know, a close relation to the main character. Good ideas keep them coming! We now need some ideas for the beginning, explaining why the main characters in new york, what he doing and how he starts killing.

You should get rid of killing or any other things like that because it could get flagged for stuff like that. Usually replacing the idea of bullets with tranquilizer darts will "keep the SA off your back". Or, we could add in a Sci-Fi effect: all the people shot with the special darts are teleported to a special prison for further questioning or something.

Yeah we'll make a non-violent version for scratch then one where you can toggle blood and swearing for download on the internet!

What's BINGO? Also, I'm not sure about the blood toggle. If it's really detailed blood, it'll get flagged in two minutes. However, if you only use red splotches, might not be as bad.

BINGOs a mod of scratch, but it cant be compiled to a .exe program, so thats that idea away... But the finished version of the game with a blood and swear toggle wouldnt be released on scratch, it would go on the internet for download

Sadly, I think you need to upload a project onto the website before you put it onto another web site... perhaps if you used the embed thingy on a project and deleted it after you put it on a web page, but I don't know...

If you want, I'll make an email address like SandStoneProductions@gmail.com and make a Google Base (a really, really simple site maker) for SSP, we can put the projects there.

How big is it? If it's too large, WinSlows (Windows Vista) will corrupt it and cause Scratch to go bonkers.
Offline
@aweman, I wont be imbedding a scratch project to a website, i'll make it into a .exe application that can be downloaded and installed!
@WindozeNT, its not much bigger than the uppdate, its just my computer cant connect to the internet... I'm doing this on my phone

Yeah, but you could download the .exe from the website. Plus, it will seem more official and make it easier to collaborate, we can share emails on another website, but not on Scratch. Also, how many big companies don't have a web site?

Yeah now my computers working again i'll start to set up a website and we can work on it from there and here. Also with the website comes Unity, we need to sart working on some proper 3D games as well as scratch! I tried Unity alone months ago but I didn't get it...
Offline
Great! Is it something that you drag little boxes around to make the site, or do you have to write out the code? Not Unity, but the host for your site.
